Drop: King springs vs Eibach pro kit

My NA6 came fitted with King Springs fitted. I currently have issues with scraping on the many and varied traffic calming features around Brisbane.

In the interests of gaining a little height how does the Eibach prokit compare?

Hello Jerrah, you'll need to look at other threads to find out original height of your car. Usually measured from centre of wheel to edge of guard. To be able to compare the ride height of the eibachs to your kings, however from personal experience the eibachs will give you a smoother more comfortable ride with great handling.

Hi Jerrah,
First question, what shock do you have, if there Koni you will be able to raise the suspension this way.
From the research I've done pretty well all after market springs will lower the car from 20mm to 45mm.
You could get std height springs but after driving on lowered you prob won't be happy on 4wd height!!

I have the Koni Yellow sports. They're currently set to the middle position. I was going to try them on the highest setting first as long as it doesn't upset my camber settings too much. (I'll obviously need to get it set up properly).

If you have the koni's sports,set the rear to top circlip and fronts should be able to stay in the middle, thats how mine is set and that gives me 100mm clearance.
